Customer Reviews Inverness - SYHA
| 20 Mar 2012 Matthew, USA | 93% | |
| The hostel was very clean and quiet, but it was sort of out of the way (there are quite a few hostels in the very center of Inverness; this one is not). Also, we paid 21 pounds each for a what we thought would be a room with just three beds - turns out we were just the only ones in a 6 bed room. It's not a huge deal, but we all kind of agreed that we had been taken advantage of, especially since there were only a few other people in what seemed like a huge hostel. The breakfast was WAY overpriced, and despite being the cleanest hostel I've ever stayed in, I'll stay somewhere else if I ever visit Inverness again. | ||

| Staff struggled to be friendly. Room heating wasn't working and st6aff were slow to deal with it. Eventually we were offered a new room. When we enquired about breakfast options we were not encouraged to eat in but to go elsewhere [which naturally we did]
The least friendly and helpful IH hostel we've stayed in | ||

| It takes about 20 minutes on foot from a bus station and a rail station.
It is old, although the institution is large.

| Good accommodation and location - within easy walking distance to city centre - room was unfortunately beside a toilet ensuite so was very noisy throughout the night :-( | ||

| I stayed in a private room for two people for one night. I would say the beds are far from comfort, but the kitchen is huge and clean. | ||

| We stayed in a family room - it was a bit noisy during the night. The facilities were great and we had a good stay overall. | ||

| Although Inverness hostel lacks the character of some of the more remote hostels, it's well positioned and operates well as a busy city hostel. | ||

| Personal estupendo y servicial, limpieza y cocinas bien, aunque poca generosidad de los alberguistas en el uso comun de las cosas, (por ejemplo en otros albergues siempre encuentras cosas esenciales de uso comun como sal, especias, incluso leche...). Estado de nuestra habitación familiar -de 4- lamentable para el precio que tiene. Techos rotos, camas que crujen, colchones con bultos, un poco lamentable. Por lo demás, para una noche, pasable. | ||
